HALEAD (浙江海利得新材料股份有限公司 / Zhejiang Hailide New Materials Co., Ltd.)
Company Overview
HALEAD — 浙江海利得新材料股份有限公司, Zhejiang Hailide New Materials Co., Ltd. — is a technical textile and new materials group based in Haining, Zhejiang. Per the company's own corporate history, it was established in 2001 and listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2008 under the code 002206.
The interesting part for a buyer is not the listing, it is the vertical integration. The company states that it operates the full chain from polyester chip and polyester industrial yarn through warp knitting and weaving, into calendering, laminating and coating. In coated-fabric sourcing that structure matters a great deal, because the most common failure mode at a converter is base fabric bought from a third party that changes every six months. A factory that spins its own yarn and knits its own greige cloth has a much better chance of delivering the same hand and the same dimensional behaviour in container five as in container one.
The group operates six business areas according to its own disclosures: polyester, chemical fibre, tire cord fabric, plastic materials, film and flooring.
Main Products
From the company's composite materials division, the export-facing coated and laminated range covers:
- Advertising printing materials — PVC banner substrate and related print media, sold through a dedicated advertising materials department on the English site.
- Truck covers and industrial protective fabrics — tarpaulin-type coated cloth for road transport and industrial protection.
- Architectural membranes — high-performance coated fabrics for tensile and membrane architecture.
- Biogas membrane materials — a newer line aimed at the renewable energy and digester cover market.
- PVC ceiling film, TPU series and bio-based materials — decorative and sustainability-oriented film products.
- Industrial polyester yarn, tire cord fabric and SPC flooring — the upstream and adjacent divisions of the same group.
The division's own capacity statement (as published on its site) lists 2 polyester workshops, 6 spinning workshops, 16 warp knitting machines, 8 calendering lines, 12 laminating lines and 4 coating lines, with coating capacity around 12 million square metres per year. Treat those as company-reported figures, but they are specific enough to be worth checking against a factory visit.
Certifications and Sustainability Claims
The composite materials division states that it holds the EcoVadis Gold Medal and Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certification, and it has been actively marketing bio-based material lines and biogas membrane products through 2025 and 2026, including exhibiting at Techtextil Frankfurt (April 2026, Hall 11.0, Stand E18, per the company's own news page). Buyers with ESG reporting requirements should ask for the current certificate copies and the scope of the GRS registration — a company can hold GRS on one product line and not on another.
Key Facts
- Founded / listed: 2001 / Shenzhen Stock Exchange 2008, code 002206 (company disclosure).
- FY2025 H1 results (published half-year report, August 2025): revenue RMB 2.921 billion, up 1.55% year on year; net profit attributable to shareholders RMB 296.1 million, up 56.16% year on year.
- Group scale (company site): roughly 1,800,000 m² of factory area and 4,000+ employees across the group.
- Manufacturing footprint: Haining (headquarters and Jianshan district plant) plus a Vietnam branch in Trang Bang, Tay Ninh, used notably for tire cord expansion.
- Known customers cited by the company: automotive and tyre names including Michelin, Bridgestone and Goodyear on the cord fabric side — useful as an indication of the quality system, not as a reference you can rely on for a coated fabric order.
Buyer Notes
This is a large, listed, integrated manufacturer, which means a few practical things. Expect a real MOQ and a real qualification process; this is not a shop that will run 500 metres of banner material for a first order. Expect the sales conversation to be split by division — the advertising materials team and the industrial coating team are separate desks with different emails. And expect them to be comfortable with technical specifications: if you send a one-line "610 gsm PVC" enquiry, you will get a short answer, whereas a full base-cloth and coating spec gets you an engineer.
For buyers whose volume is in the thousands of square metres rather than the hundreds of thousands, the more realistic route is often a mid-size converter in Nantong or Haining that buys HALEAD-class yarn or greige — but knowing what the top of this market looks like is exactly what lets you judge a converter's claims.
